Th e old lady hare threw down her umbrella, and turning briskly about, caught hold of the first person who happened to be near her, and began to shake him so fiercely, that well-grounded fears were raised for the secu rity of his coat.

" full of force, fire, and enthusiasm—the production of a man of a p )ctic and patriotie spirit."—Blackwood's Magazine, June. London : Longman and Co. COURT OF CHANCERY, AUGUST 8. (Concluded from The Sun of yesterday.) THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. DUPRE. sons; but I think I should not be doing my duty were I to omit to notice that when the military afterwards attacked them, several of their body fell under the bullets and bayonets which were directed against them. In those cases the Coro ner's jury set, and the verdict they returned was, " Justifi able homicide ;" and supposing those facts to have appeared which I have spoken of, and those depositions to be correct, there can be no doubt that evert person who was engaged in the necessary process of stopping the progress of these men would be perfectly justified in taking the course which had unfortunately led to so much loss of life; quite as much so, indeed, as though the parties who were so killed, had been indicted, tried, and convicted of the offence, and afterwards undergone execution. It is greatly to be hoped that all per sons will feel the danger they are incurring by associating to gether for the purpose of offering resistance to the laws. It appears to me to be a most extraordinary circumstance, that a large body of persons should have been got together within so short a space of time, and that they should have been able to compel others to join them without any apparent cause, without any apparent suffering or deprivation, without the slightest ill-feeling against any obnoxious individual, but solely from the harangues of a single person, who did not ap pear to have been governed by any specific object. Neither were they actuated by a cause which had been represented in other parts of the country to have been the origin of the events out of which these results had sprung, viz., a spirit of discontent, issuing from the existing New Poor-laws. If there really had been that spirit of discontent abroad, and the admi nistration of that law had led to deprivations, it is not easy to imagine that the person by whom they appear to have been infatuated would have missed the opportunity of alleging those facts as a cause for their combination. It is impossible, on reflection, to suppose that he would have abstained from im puting, as had been done elsewhere, to that law—a law which tends so greatly to the alleviation of the distresses, and ex tends relief so largely to the poorer a nd more un f ortunate classes of society—hardships under which his victims ought, by possibility, have been labouring at the time. The only cause for the proceedings which does appear to have existed is an astonishing degree of credulity and ignorance, which it is hardly possible to conceive could have existed to such an ex tent in any part of this country. Now I heard it said yesterday in a most admirable sermon preached by a clergyman after my arrival in this place, " That the great end of public justice is not to avenge crimes, but to prevent them, by teaching that prac tical morality founded on religious truth which is necessary both to secure good conduct in this world, and to prepare men for the enjoyment of happiness in the world to come ;" and, if it is the credulity arising from extreme ignorance which has made those unfortunate men the dupes of one, himself nst under the guidance of reason, and supposed not to be responsible for his acts, still if they adopt and make those acts their own they are responsible in law. If that be so, I am sure (and I wish it to become known through out the country, that the consequences of similar conduct to that charged against these men are those to which I have referred), it is urgently necessary that the country should ap ply itself to the discovery of some remedy for an evil so great and so alarming. Should it then appear that ignorance has been the cause of these unfortunate men having been so easily led away, I trust that we shall all admit the neces sity there is for the most strenuous efforts being made en other parts to secure a better state of things, and thereby lay a foundation for a better observance and obedience of the laws. If the minds of these poor men had been properly directed, or if they had enjoy ed a higher degree of intelligence, it would to a considerable extent, if not entirely, have tended to the defeat of the strange delusion under which they appear at the time to have been labouring. If this be preyed to be the case—if the mischiefs which have taken place have arisen from the absence of a proper cultivation of the mind, there is no one who will not readily join in effecting the improvement which these events show to be loudly demanded—an improve ment which might materially be effected by inculcating the great truths of religious morality, and teaching them to un derstand and reason on the occurrences passing around them. In my opinion, t oo , opportun i t i es may ar i se o f introducing into the pasti mes o f t h e people such a sp i r i t o f cheerfulness andinterest as may have the effect of laying the foundation for weaning them from the dangerous and delusive inclina. tions they seem to have existing amongst them. The Noble and Learned Lo r d conc l u d e d by strongly urging the magis trates and gentry of the county to exert themselves in the im provement of the minds of the peasantry. The grand jury then retired, and shortly sent in several bills, charging persons with offences of a trifl•ng nature, which were disposed of. The Loan CHANCELLOR thought the order he was now called on to make out, one which was quite of course. The pal tics asked for leave to propose a scheme for the extending the usefulness of the charity. Mr. Dupre did not resist the or der, and the House of Lords, without the sanction of the Court of Chancery, would not entertain any Bills for the purpose of altering the administration of trust. Under such circumstan ces the matter must go to the Master, and Mr. Dupre must oi l er rse attend and take such part in the proceedings there a thought advantageous to his interests. The case would come back for the confirmation of the Master's report, and Mr. Dupre would then have an opportunity of complaining if he felt aggrieved. His Lordship declined saying anything as to costs. FRANCIS WILSON, Deputy Chairman. t om, 6 4 , • Aug.3,lloorcrate street kur , H3B. - 0 -, THE VICTORIA LIFE ASSURANCE and LOAN COMPANY.

Leave was asked to go before the vacation Master, on the ground that the House of Lords required notices within a cer tain time. Mr. DYER asked Clarke if he hal said anything calculated to stir the ire of the old lady? The complainant answered he had thrown out no insinuation, and, as far as he was con cerned, the character of the old lady was perfectly immaculate. Mr. l)s - En-Well, Mrs. Imison, you see you were quite mistaken in supposing any reflection on you was intended. Mrs. Imison—Don't tell me so ; he'd the impudence to say I went out gipsying with him. A pretty thing, indeed, to say of m-, who hasn't hardly touched a man's hand since I lost my poor dear husband. Mr. DYER—You were all merry together, and I should be inclined to treat the matter as a joke. Mrs. Imison (tartiv)—That's because you are not a woman. The defendant called a young woman who was with her its the public-house to state what occurred. The witness completely ❑egatived the assertion of inebrity, and with respect to the vocal exhibition she said she had never heard Mrs. !orison sing, but she had occasionally known the old lady exert her faculty in making verses. The fat old lady, when questioned, admitt d that "the gods ha , l made her poetical," and that for the amusement of her private friends she was accustomed " to build the lofty rhyme." Mr. DYER—After all, this matter does not appear to be very serious. Come now, Mrs. Imison, you will ullow you are fond of a friendly joke now and then.—Mrs. Imison admitted the fact. Mr. DYER—And that, occasionally, you give way to a little warmth of temper ?--Mis. Imison nodded assent. Mr. DYER-_But when all is over, that you don't bear any ill wit , :is I dare say is the case as to the complainant.? Mrs. Imison-_I don't bear him a grudge now he's cleared my character.

GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. (Concluded from The Sun of yesterday. ) His HONOUR, Vtithout calling for a reply, delivered judg ment, and said he must allow the demurrer for want of equity. Ile did not think the objection for multifariousness was well founded, for the contracts, though not one and the same, were 3et in part materia, and if the Court had jurisdiction at all, it could only exercise that jurisdiction upon the contracts altogether, and the parties had, in their dealings under the contracts, blended them together. According to the alle gations in the bill, one observation, however, occurred to him : the suit was so framed that if any other parties should make the objection, it can hardly be made without producing plaintiff impossibl e not to see that George Ranger had nothing to had alr ea dy su b m itt e d t o as i nsupera bl e . It was do Kith the th ree fi rst centracts, an d if h e o bj ects , his name must be struck out of the record ; and if he is off the record the objection for want of parties revives, and thus the Bill is placed between Scylla and Charybdis. With respect to the general point, he could not but himself think it was the intention of the Company that they should have, in a dismissal very great d egree, an arbitrary power to dismiss the con tractor if th ey s h ou l d feel dissatisfied with him; and, to h's mind, the language of th e c l ause w hi ch related to the not i ce of m proved it. Th e case was not hi ng more than t h at the Company h a d ill ega ll y, and without warrant, seized the plaintiff's spa d es, wheelbarr ows , &c„ and therefore the bill was filed. There was no case for an account. The payments were all on one side, for work and labour on the other. If there was a question of trespass, or if there was a question up)n a quantuni meruit, a Court of Law was the place where that should be decided. But so long as the work was in pro gress, this Court could not interfere. He should, therefore, allow the demurrer. This decisi on , o f course , di spose d of the motion for the irjunction.

OLD CRUSTED MASDEU.--It is now five years since the Proprietors of the GRAY'S-INN WINE ESTABLISHMENT commenced their operations on this WINE, and it will be remembered that two years ago they introduced it to the public, as well worthy, both in quality in price, to take its stand among those in general consumption in this couutry ; they detailed at length their knowledge of its quality, and the practical expe rience upon which their judgment was formed: they showed that the heavy and unequal taxation created by the Methuen Treaty, in 1703, had amounted to a prohibition of many of the Wines of France ; but the English Government having, in 1831, equalised the duties on French and Portugal Wines, they expressed their conviction, that a wide field was opened for capital and exertion to compete with the hitherto more favoured vineyards of the Penin sula. The success which has attended that competition will be best seen by the undermentioned Parliamentary Return, showing the net consumption of the United Kingdom. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Aua. 8.

'f he insolvent had been the medical adviser of the Kingston Poor-law Union, near Hereford, in which town Mr. Sill re sided. Lie had brought an action against Mr. Wakley, M.P., as editor of the Lancet, for an alleged libel on his character in that publication, in reference to the situation he held under the Poor-law Commissioners. The cause was conducted by Mr. Sill, on the part of the insolvent. It was tried before Mr. Baron Alderson, at the last Spring Assizes, at Hereford, and a verdict was giVen for the plaintiff, damages one farthing. His Lordship aftervt ards certified to deprive the plaintiff of his costs. The insolvent had been arrested by Mr. Sill on a joint promissory note he had given to raise money to conduct the action. His insolvency had been occasioned by the action he had brought against Mr. Wakley. The COURT required the insolvent to amend his schedule in relation to the admission of Mr. Sill's debt, subject to taxation. He was ordered to be discharged.

With this view the Proprietors of the Gray's-inn Wine Esta blishment (anticipating these results from the intrinsic quality of the Wine) caused 2,500 dozen to be put in bottle in the year 1835, and have since annually increased their stock, so that they might be in the same position with this as with the other Wine; in which they deal, and be enabled to keep up a constant supply of matured and old bottled Wine. I t is now in brilliant condition, with a firm crust ; may be moved vhithout the slightest injury ; and the nobi lity and public in general are respectfully invited to pass their judg merit on it at the vaults of their Establishment. The Proprietors regret the necessity of again cautioning the public and the country urine-merchants against various common red Wines which have been in many instances surreptitiously im posed upon the wine-merchants, aLd through them, unknowingly, upon the public, as the genuine Masdeu, to which they have no more affinity than the Port Wine produced in Figueira has to the hi,;hest quality of the vineyards of the Alto Douro.

It would appear that it blew pretty severely at the time, and that this circumstance, together with the boat having a comiderable quantity of casks and salt on board, must have led to the sad catastrophe. There were some other boats near the place of the ac cident, and though every despatch was used in order to render assist ance to the sufferers, not a vestige of them or the boat was to ba seen on the others coming up.—Edinburgh Advertiser. - • They write from Vienna that the troops which ar e to appear at the approaching Coronation of the Emperor of Aus t r ia at Milan, have already began to move. They will ba encamped in the country round Milan, where the equipages, Italian body guards, andg detachment of hussars which are to go to meet his Majesty at Mo na were to be assembled by the 2.11 inst. The expense the Government and the city have gone to is immense. Not only have the Milan ware houses been cleared of all the velvet they contained, but 10,000 yards have been o r d e red f rom E ng l an d f or t h e d ecora ti ons o f the cathedral. _ The Corso from thence t o th e eas t ern ga t e ha s b e en re-paved with freestone, and to improve the co u p d' x il severa l h ouses h av e been pulled down.

Jobard, of Brussels (says the Nouvelliste), has discovered a method, according to which it is assertAl that the Straits of Calais may be crossed in eleven minutes, by means of a pyrotechnica l composition, of which the chlorate of potash is the basis, but in a less proportion than in Congreve rockets. The whole apparatus consists in a boat, with the floating properties of the lifeboat, long and narrow, crossed at its greatest diameter by one or more iron tubes charged with pyro technical composition. By applyi ng fi re to these tubes, the openings to hich 81141 Led pass beyond the stern o f th e b oat, the re-action is state d to he such that the boat will glide over the water with a swiftness never at tained on any railway. The construction being upon the principle of the life-boat, the person embarking in it will run no other risk than that of getting a few momentary duckings, but will always rise again to the sur bee. The bubding of the boat will not cost more than about 1,000 francs, and each voyage will require 100 francs' worth of gunpowder. LATE CASE OF SUDDEN DEATH.—Frorn a statement made yesterday before the Magistrates at Lambeth-street it appears that the female recently found in a dying state in Bloomsbury, and respecting whom a Coroner's Jury returned a ver. diet of " Died by the visitation of God," was a maiden lady named Jackson, of considerable property, residing in Mile-end, and that when seizes' with sudden illness, i terminated in her death, she was on the way to one of her nephews, who lives in Bloomsbury. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCUIT.-111.41DsroNE, Aua. 7. THE LATE CANTERBURY RIOTS. The Assizes for the county of Kent commenced yesterday. Lord DENUAN entered the borough in the course of the after noon, and having opened the Commission, proceeded to Church. Mr. Justice PATTESON, whose name has been substituted for that of Mr. Baron HOLLAND, (lid not reach this place until this morning. Lord Denman is to preside in the Crown Court, whil,t, Mr. Justice Pattoson will take the causes set down for trial on the Nisi l'rius side. The calendar presents a list of sixty-seven prisoners, of whom sixteen are charged with the crime of m urder, which, it will be remembered, was committed on the occasion of Sir William Courtenay, alias Thom, being shot in the neighbourhood of Canterbury. This morning the Courts opened at ten o'clock, Lord Den man presiding in that where the criminals will be tried.

On the arrival of this force one of the officers advanced, as he had a right to do, in front of the rest, where the same ringleader shot him through the heart.

WEDNESDAY, AL'aUST 8. John Gust, a soldier, aged nineteen, was indicted for the commission of a capital offence on the person of Charlotte Grant, an interesting child of about eleven years of age. It appeared that on the 28th of May the prosecutrix, with two other children about her own age, went into a wood in the neighbourhood of Fordwieh to gather violets, when the pri soner induced her to leave her young companions and accom many him, and in a lonely part of the wood attempted to perpetrate the offence with which he was now accused. As there appeared to be some doubt whether the capital offence had been consummated, under the direction of the Learned Judge the Jury acquitted the prisoner of the capital charge, and found him guilty of the assault.

MARLBOROUGH -STREET Mrs. Charlotte liaison, an:old-fashioned but sturdy dame, of the " fat and comfortable" class, was charged before Mr. Dyer and Sir George Farrant with having well pummelled one Mr. Clarke, and moreover irreparably damaged his black body. coat. Mr. Clarke occupied his time by acting as agent to suitors in the Castle street Court of Requests, and that in the exer cise of his vocation he had occasion to render some service to the defendant, who, in return, invited him into a public-house in the neighbourhood for the purpose of standing treat. Sundry pots of half-and-half were comfortably discussed, in the course of which convivial proce 'ding the old lady became so animated that she offerred to treat the company gratuitously with a specimen of her vocal powers. After the old lady had concluded her harmony, complainant, humouring her merry mood, struck up with the burthen of a popular ditty, some thing to this effect— " Oh: the fun we had, you know, On the day when we went gipsying, A long time ago." The deli cacy o f t h e old lady instantly took fire at a sup posed crimination conveyed by the words, and, starting up, she seized him with the gripe of a she bear, tore his coat in pieces, and would have throttled him had it not been for the strenuous interp o siti on o f t h e l andlady, the potboy, and a host of by. standers. Mr. Clarke produced his coat, which bore ample witness to Yesterday a Commission of Lunacy was opened before Commissioners Winslow, Murray and West, at the Gray's-inn Coffeehouse, Holborn, for the purpose of ascertaining the state of mind of Mr. William Eusden, late of Sand, near Guildford, Surrey, and since an inmate of Dr. Warburton's asylum for lunatics at Bethnal-green. Mr. Rommel' in support of the Commission, said it was taken out at the instance of Mrs. Eusden. Mr. Eusden was now in his sixty-fourth year, and was a man who originally moved in a humble sphere of life, but by his industry he had acquired a very considerable independence. In February. 1830, he was first seiztd with fits of excitement, and he ran into the streets at night undressed. In March, 1831, he attempted to destroy himself by hang ing, but he was cut down, and by timely assistance re stored. He then continued pretty well up to Christmas, 1836, and also in September, 1837. The intervening time was filled up by delusions that sere not at all referable to any reasonahle mind, and if the evidence bore out his ( Mr. IZo mills's) instructions lie thought the ju-y would have no doubt in fixing Mr. F,usden's insanity in September, 1837. In the latter part of that month he left his house at night and went to a lady's two miles off; named Harrison, and broke her windows. The fits of violence growing stronger, Mr. Eusden, by an order of sonic Surrey magistrates, was removed in the following month to Dr. Warburton's. He also labourcd under many extra ordinary delusions respecting certain religious covenants affect ine not only huma n being.; but also an i ma l s.

I west. and found him standing by his door. I said, " Are you Mr. Eusden ?" and he said, " Yes;" and then, speaking roughly, I said, " You have been kicking up a great dust here, and you have been beatisg your wife and threatening to kill her ; lam aconstable, and l'il stop this. If you are not quiet I'd put some handcuffs on you." He clapped his hands and said " Oh, my boy, you may put the handcuffs uson me—you are not the first man that has be_n charged nith me." 1 removed him to my house, a:ld he told we it was e:ght years since hi s marr i age, and that h e h a d not hal a moment's happiness since. lie said that no man was ever so loth to go to the gallows to be hung as he was to go to church to be married to his wife. I asked him why he went, and he said the church made him. He likewise said they performed covenants, and did not work them. Mr. Wtsseow—Who performed covenants? Witness—H e said "they ;" an d w h en I asked him who ho meant, he answered,The Church," an;; it' I went there I could know all about it, " for," ap,ed he, " you know the Trinity of the Church." He. asked me if I had not a con stable's staff. I said I had, and he then put his hand into his waistcoat pocket and pulled out a s tooth, and observed, " Here's a little fellow that will alw - ass go before yos ; it will always go first, for God's head constable g ave it C or me He said he had been led about by lights, and be had come to a place where all these lights met together, and now that they had met he knew he was to remain there, and it was in that place he was to die. I did not consider Mr. Eusd !rt was capable of mana4ing himself and his property when I knew him. Various other evidence was taken, which left no doubt of the state of the unfortunate ,gereleman's mind.: After a short consultation, the Jury returned a verdict, that " Mr. Eusden was of unsound mind, and had been so since Oct. 1,1837." Yesterday morning about half.past Beven o'clock Mary Bitting, a housemaid in the family of a ger'letuan named Ifine,, residing in Ilermcs.street, Pentonvil'e %Yr; discovered by her fellow. servant suspended by the neck from ti!O smid:e.jack of the kitchen lire. place by a piece of cord, tier far was quite black, and her features hideously distorted. An alarm was given, and she was cut down just in time to save her life. The cause of her attempting to destroy herself is attributed to some altercation that had recently taken place between her and her mistress's sister.
